Powerful storms brought lightning strikes, hail and power outages to New Jersey Thursday, with three children sustaining injuries from a lightning strike in Green Township.

A lightning strike about 5:55 p.m. Thursday at Great Divide Campground caused injuries and burns to three juveniles, according to State Police Sgt. First Class Gregory Williams.

The children were flown by Medevac helicopter to Morristown Medical Center, where they were determined to be stable. They were then transferred to the burn unit at St. Barnabus Hopsital in Livingston. Their condition was unknown Friday. Their parents were with the children at the scene of the incident, Williams said.
